Behaviour and design of hot-rolled stainless steel channel section members by Li, Shuai

“…The obtained experimental and numerical data were then employed to assess the accuracy of the existing design rules for hot-rolled stainless steel channel section members, as given in the European code and American specification. The assessment results revealed that the current design codes result in conservative cross-section resistance predictions, but scattered member resistance predictions with both conservative and unsafe results, mainly owing to the lack of proper consideration of the pronounced material strain hardening and nonlinear material property of stainless steel in the design. …”

An epigenetic analysis of planarian stem cells by Dattani, A

“…Transcriptomic studies have revealed the genes needed to both maintain NB pluripotency and ensure correct lineage specification during differentiation. However, these studies have not elucidated how this regulation of expression is controlled at the epigenetic level, and in particular by diverse histone modifications. …”

InAlN/GaN high electron mobility transistors on Si for RF applications by Xing, Weichuan

“…Linearity of GaN transistors ultimately limits the power density and efficiency of these devices in many applications, as the operating point of the device typically needs to be backed-off to meet the linearity specifications. In fact, as the operating frequency increases into the mm-wave range by shrinking the gate length, the linearity is expected to degrade even further. …”
